Abstract

This article aims to compare Saudi Arabia and the doctrine of Marx's study of similarities and differences between people. Saudi Arabia believes that every important historical era, to capture and recognition by the mainstream of contemporary social and historical reality, one or two outstanding philosophy or world view to define, in his mind, to represent the modern knowledge but the social philosophy of Marxism. Existentialism, it is only but a survival in the era of knowledge , the edge of the parasitic system. However, orthodox Marxism in order to maintain the results of the revolution, but rather on the theory and practice have stalled, people become revolutionary philosophy of the object, be vested with a certain role in order to meet the philosophy of the revolution goal of statehood, Marxism has degenerated into a will of the activists of idealism. Saudi Arabia believes that Marxism has always been based on specific evidence of human life into the core of its ideology, so, if you want to revive Marxism, we must get to the root, people from the reconstruction of the Marxist school start, and the meaning of human existence exploration and is the subject of existentialism, which is existential in this case it can still maintain independence, but not easily understand the reasons for consumers being Marxist. Saudi Arabia to existential human science for Marx's complement operator does not meet the people who study Marx's own concept of what this paper attempts to explore and compare the key. This paper compares and contrasts the philosophical anthropology of Sartre with Marx. In Sartre's opinion, every significant era in history is characterized by some predominant philosophies or views of the world which enable one to extract and come to know current social and historical realities. According to Sartre, Marxism is a social philosophy which reflects modern knowledge, while existentialism is only a parasitic system which exists on the edge of the modern knowledge that is Marxism. However, because the purpose of orthodox Marxism is to maintain the achievements of the revolution, this results in a regression in the practice of the theory. Man becomes an object of revolutionary philosophy and is requested to fill some specific social roles in realizing revolutionary philosophy's goal of state- building. Marxism has already degenerated into a voluntarist idealism. Sartre believes the core of Marxism seeks justification of a concrete lifestyle. Consequently, if we are to recover Marxism, the fundamental method should be to reconstruct Marxist philosophical anthropology. Seeking the meaning of man's being is the task of existentialism. The purpose of this paper is to probe and criticize whether or not Sartre's use of existential philosophical anthropology in supplementing Marxism is consistent with Marx's own view of philosophical anthropology
